Interested in volunteering with us?

We are a small organisation with limited resources and volunteers play a critical role in enabling Down Syndrome Victoria to empower individuals with Down syndrome for a lifetime of meaningful inclusion in the community. The organisation, which began in 1978, was actually started by volunteers.

Volunteering is a way to connect with the local community as well as provide a pathway to personal and skills development. Volunteering is open to people of all ages and individuals with a disability are encouraged to apply.

As a small organisation our volunteer opportunities are limited. Please see more information below.

Major events

Volunteers are integral to the success of our annual events, helping with set up/pack up, running kids activities, face painting and just being there to give encouragement and support to Down Syndrome Victoria and families and individuals. We have two major annual events.
